Two-time All-American Cyril Richardson was the first Bear off the board, going in the fifth round to the Buffalo Bills to become the sixth Baylor offensive lineman drafted in the last six years. “We don’t draft guys to be backups,” said the Bills’ director of player personnel afterwards.

Running back Lache Seastrunk followed; he’ll team with Robert Griffin III in Washington after being drafted by the Redskins in the sixth round. Redskins coach Jay Gruden described Seastrunk as a player who can “hit the home run” and admitted RG3 was pushing his team to draft the Baylor back.

The San Diego Chargers caught the speedy Tevin Reese in the seventh round — the fifth Baylor wide receiver selected in the last five drafts. Reviews of the pick again and again noted Reese’s explosive speed and predict he can find a role with San Diego as a deep threat, much like he was at Baylor.

Ahmad Dixon’s grandmother taught him to be a Cowboys fan as a boy, and he’ll get the chance to play for Dallas after getting picked by the Cowboys in the seventh round. Dixon was noticeably emotional when he got the phone call from the Cowboys, and the emotion resurfaced later when he spoke to media for the first time (see video here and here.)
